### 1/5 — Couldn’t rate it low enough

*2025-06-05, version 2.4*

Absolute garbage.  There is a staggering lack of customer support. There is zero phone support. Email Support never comes within the same week. I’ve waited two weeks to get a response about an issue I’ve had with the site. The site itself is clunky unintuitive, and difficult to use. It’s expensive overpriced really for what it is. I tried to work with them for over two years and it’s been the most awful experience I’ve had with any photographic software. They absolutely do not care about their customers. I’ve never ever experienced anything like it. I have recently found. Shootproof. They have phone support and they respond in real time and email. Check them out if you’re dissatisfied with this rotten garbage software and team.

### 2/5 — User

*2024-03-15, version 2.4*

Changing permissions doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2024-02-26, version 2.4*

Not intuitive, clunky, missing so many features. Feels like a free app from the very first release of the very first App Store ever. Time to do better PhotoShelter! People are paying you for a service, least you can do it put some effort into the app ui.

### 2/5 — Outdated, broken functionality?

*2024-02-08, version 2.4*

This app had potential but it wasn't update much and the last time was over a year ago. It's nice to be able to browse my photos/folders though the views are lacking. The main complaint I have is uploading through the App downsizes RAW files, for example from 4040x6064 (32.6mb) to  to 1536x2308 (1.3mb) ... not good! Uploading the same image/s through the browser interface retains all the meta data and sizing. This makes the app a lot less valuable to use as a photo business tool. The help files on PS for the mobile app says  "Formally supported devices: iPhone 5 & 6, Nexus 4/5x/6/7, and Samsung 4/S4/S5. Compatible devices: iPad, iPad mini, and iPod." How OLD is that??

### 1/5 — Useless for multi-user accounts

*2022-11-12, version 2.4*

Support for multi-user accounts is unsupported so this app is unusable for us.

### 2/5 — Unusable UI

*2022-08-17, version 1.7.5*

It’s great for viewing and occasionally downloading images but menus used to change setting ins files is unusable as it does not drop down far enough to be able to tap in the options (iPhone 13 pro max)

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work as it should

*2022-02-14, version 1.7.4*

I’ve use this app for years, and the last few months I’ve been unable to send permissions to clients because the screen cuts off as an email link at the very top on iPhone. Please fix this!

### 5/5 — Love his app but it just

*2021-11-01, version 1.7.2*

I love this app but is anyone else finding it consistently crashing on startup? I’m sure it’s me but just thought I would mention it. This is a fantastic platform don’t let that comment dissuade you I will endeavor to update this. Great app great platform.

### 1/5 — Help

*2021-09-14, version 1.7.2*

I’ve been trying to get onto the app but it keeps crashing when it tries to log in

### 3/5 — Not bad in principle

*2019-11-10, version 1.6.7*

But there are a number of lingering issues that become more apparent as mobile tech evolves. Buttons don’t always work or are displayed correctly, you can’t download the original or available resolution photo to your mobile gallery (Photoshelter downloads a preset, lower-quality resolution), and lately the app has been timing out after 10 mins or so of use (iPhone XR). 

Would really like to see some much-needed updates as this could be a much more useful tool from both a file management and client usage perspective. Especially considering how much the Pro web subscription costs.
